Chaotic Charm of Saigon
This was shot in Cô Giang Street in Saigon, Vietnam.
Note: Do you know Saigon was called the "Pearl of the Far East"? It was once seen as the center of economics and entertainment in Indochina during the French colonization. Merchants around the world during that time anchored their boats and ships at Saigon to import a lot of goods. That's why it was the melting pot in this bustling city.
I visited Saigon last month and the city has impressed me a lot with its buildings and structure nevertheless, the traffic. I woke up early that morning around 7 am and the moment I stepped out of the hotel, I felt the humid heat wave blew into my face and heard the sound of Vietnam. (the cycling sound with car horns and chatters)
I followed the source and of the noise and it led me to Cô Giang street. As if the curtain up in a concert hall, I was surprised at how chaotic this street could be! Am I back into the 1980s? No! It's 2017, I took out my camera and snapped. There you go, here you can witness this bustling street with all kinds of things happening around.
The chaotic charm of Saigon can give you any surprise.
This photo was shot with this setting: 1/250 sec f/2.0, ISO 200 (Fujifilm X100T 23mm)
